Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar disorder, often referred to as manic-depressive illness, is one of the most common mental disorders. Typical for Bipolar
disorders are unusual swings in a person's mood, energy level and ability to function.

The consequences can be dramatic. People suffering from bipolar disorder experience difficulties in many aspects of their life. They often have
difficulties in keeping a job, or finishing school. They often suffer from damaged relationships. Some of them even commit suicide. They also often
abuse alcohol or drugs.

On the other hand, there is now a better understanding of bipolar disorder, so therapy is more effective. When bipolar disorder is treated
properly, those suffering have the prospect of leading a happy and productive life.

There are many people suffering bipolar disorder. It is estimated that 1% to 3% of the population suffers bipolar disorder. The
condition typically develops in early adulthood or in late adolescence. Sometimes, the first symptoms of bipolar disorder can occur later in life
or sometimes even during childhood.

How comes that this mental disorder can cause so much damage to those suffering as well to their families? The problem is that bipolar disorder is
often not recognised as an illness. People sometimes suffer for years before being diagnosed and receiving proper therapy.

afflictions of the human mind.The mentally ill. The emotionally disturbed and those with severe personality disorders bear not only the anguish of
their suffering but also the additional burden of society’s indifference and ignorance.
